The Steelers cashed the board's mistake on Singer: B-.

When a board-topper like Dorian Singer slides to slot 237, you do not overthink it, and the Steelers did not.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Frazier pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, cornerback and other spots. They left with interior defensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In slot 16 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Morgan. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick86 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
Of all the spots to shop, they chose offensive lineman. Zach Frazier in Round 3, Pick 23 leaves quarterback, cornerback and other spots for later.
Pick116 Rnd4 Junior Colson
They paid sticker price for Junior Colson in the 116th overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick121 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
A quiet steal in the Round 4 slot: Roman Wilson for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick159 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
No drama and no debate, Malachi Moore went about where he belonged in No. 159. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick194 Rnd6 Jordan Burch
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Burch at pick 194 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick237 Rnd7 Dorian Singer
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 237th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
